Heard a rumor (from Reem and Nicole) you were coming up North. Hopefully it's not between the 11th and the 18th because I'll be in CA. I'd love to see you.
I'll be seeing you on the 16th after recovering from a trip to Costa Rica with high school kids and some tropical depression action...Can't wait to catch up!
it was amazing seeing you tonight dear. i loved it. my parents were especially partial to the folk songs you sang (me too). i hope to hear some prince next time! in french! "petit rouge corvette" (how was that?)
Okay! I think I'm around until the 19th, so I can make something work. The night of the 16th I have something going on...is there an actual event that night? Maybe I could make it to part of it? I'll hopefully talk to you before then, but if not, just let me know when you get here! Can't wait to see you darlin...xxoo!
Lady lady. It is my understanding that you are unbelieveably busy, so when you get a chance, shoot me an email of when you're gonna be in the area. I need to plan some Helen time! Hope the camp and the music are going well, and love and more love to you. xxoo!
